Chelle Mayer is an artist raised by a cartoon. Granddaughter of Golden Age cartoonist, Sheldon Mayer, she is a multi-media artist with a passion for comics in her blood.

 

Sheldon Mayer was and still is the foundation the Golden Age gave to the Comics World that is now a booming industry. He started doodling in school notebooks, worked on cells with Fleischer Studios, helped bring the world Superman while working with MC Gaines, created one of the first female super heroes, The Red Tornado, within his autobiographical comic Scribbly. From the Silver Age on his best-loved creations are Sugar and Spike, highlighting and fictionalizing the real antics of his own children.  At home he was a master whittler, could play any instrument he fiddled with, and kicked butt at dominoes.

 

Chelle, his namesake, also carved out a creative niche with various mediums, doodling her adventures as an artist living in and around NYC. She paints and draws on anything that stays still from: mini-zines, furniture, playing with animation and starting to write about all of the layers that make up an artist's life.
